CVE-2025-34302

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

IPFire versions prior to 2.29 (Core Update 198) contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript code through the PROT parameter when creating a new service. When a user adds a service, the application issues an HTTP POST request with the ACTION parameter set to saveservice, and the protocol type is specified in the PROT parameter. The value of this parameter is stored and later rendered in the web interface without proper sanitization or encoding, allowing injected scripts to execute in the context of other users viewing the affected service entry.

Cuando un usuario añade un servicio, la aplicación emite una solicitud HTTP POST con el parámetro ACTION establecido en saveservice, y el tipo de protocolo se especifica en el parámetro PROT. El valor de este parámetro se almacena y luego se renderiza en la interfaz web sin la sanitización o codificación adecuadas, permitiendo que los scripts inyectados se ejecuten en el contexto de otros usuarios que visualizan la entrada de servicio afectada."
